ULF WEBINAR: All About Section 504 Plans and Individualized Health Plans (IHPs)

All About Section 504 Plans and Individualized Health Plans (IHPs)

Navigating your child’s healthcare needs at school can feel overwhelming. Understanding the different plans and protections available can help families advocate for the support their children need to learn, participate, and stay safe.

Join us for an informative presentation exploring Section 504 Plans and Individualized Healthcare Plans (IHPs), including how they differ, how they work together, and the important role each plays in supporting students with chronic health conditions and disabilities.

We’ll discuss Section 504 eligibility, school accommodations, health services, emergency planning, and how families can work with school nurses, educators, and administrators to develop effective support plans. The presentation will also cover practical steps for requesting evaluations, documenting your child’s needs, addressing challenges with implementation, and ensuring plans evolve as your child’s needs change.

Whether you’re a parent or caregiver navigating your child’s educational and healthcare needs, an educator, or a school administrator, you’ll gain helpful information and practical tools to better understand these processes and advocate for a supportive school environment.

This webinar is for educational and informational purposes and is not a substitute for professional legal advice.
